Biography
(1967 – present)
Several bands go by The Moon:
1) An American band formed 1967
2) A Swedish psychedelic rock band from the mid 90’s featuring members from Qoph.
3) A Hungarian rock band formed 2003, http://www.themoon.hu
4) A German band, www.the-moon.de.
5) A Finnish band, name later changed to Mooncakes.
1) An American band formed 1967 — Moon’s first album is one of those undiscovered late-’60s psychedelic pop masterpieces which command a high price from LP collectors (like their second album, this one has not been made available on compact disc). Moon Without Earth was produced by keyboard player/guitarist/vocalist Matthew Moore and drummer Larry Brown (ex-Sidewalk Productions sideman) at Continental Recorders — formerly on Hollywood Blvd. in Hollywood, CA — where the band reportedly lived for a time. Moore — who wrote most of the material here — sings most of the lead vocals, while David Marks (ex-Beach Boys) provides lead guitar and sings background vocals. “Brother Lou’s Love Colony” and “She’s on My Mind” were written by Gary Montgomery and Jack Dalton, both members of Colours, who at the same time were recording their own 1968 self-titled debut album for Dot. These two groups are in fact quite similar stylistically in that they both were influenced by the Beatles and early Bee Gees’ recordings of the same period, focusing on buoyant mid-tempo melodies and heavily produced piano-guitar instrumentation with a McCartney-esque progressive pop feel.
